Changes to the MIB files

Sometimes there is a change in the MIB file with new Firmware upgrades, The file on the OpManager Remotes will need to be updated
Using SSH to access the Server, delete the old MIB and uploaded it using the MIB Browser tool 'Setting>Tools>MIB Browser'. An option is top add and remove the file at CLI, assuming a copy on the server already, rather than using the GUI to upload.

In Addition, if there is a change in description within the MIB file, OpManager may need the old Trap entries removed before adding all traps. It is not necessary to restart the server so it should be possible to add new Traps straight away.

Editing trap processor

While logged into OpManager navigate to "Setting>Monitors>SNMP Trap Processors", select a trap you wish to edit the output of and edit Message field or the Description field. There is a search option near the top right of the page which can be used to search keywords such as 'mimo' or 'fail'

Other criteria can be edited at this time as well, such as Severity and Match

Example Message format from a MMX radio

"mwlLoginFailedTrap is received from $Source with the following related information : $* "

The resulting message will look like this;

mwlLoginFailedTrap is received from 172.26.19.120 with the following related information : sysUpTime.0: 5 hours, 23 minutes, 30 seconds. , snmpTrapOID.0: .1.3.6.1.4.1.31730.7.0.5 ,



$Source = IP Address of device

$SourceMO(displayName) = Device Name

$*, includes all of the OID information in the Trap

$N, selects specific OID data where N starts at Zero


Using the VarBinds that Manage Engine have supplied (See link), we can display specific variables from a trap '$N ' Where N = Variable. N starts at zero. 

If we use '$* ' OpManager displays all of the details from the OID;

"The trap is received from $SourceMO(displayName). The trap details are as follows, mwlGPIO1Digital=$* "

The trap is received from RRU-1-VHF. The trap details are as follows, mwlGPIO1Digital=sysUpTime.0: 113 days, 12 hours, 40 minutes, 49 seconds. , snmpTrapOID.0: .1.3.6.1.4.1.31730.7.0.12 , mwlGPIO1Digital.0: 0 ,

The next example shows the I and O state when the GPIO trap is received. '$2 ' represents the third OID in the trap;

 "The trap is received from $SourceMO(displayName). The trap details are as follows, mwlGPIO1Digital=$2 "

The trap is received from RRU-1-VHF. The trap details are as follows, mwlGPIO1Digital=0
